FILLING AND DRAINING THE DETERGENT
SOLUTION TANK
☞ The temperature of the water or the detergent
should never exceed 50°C.
☞ Always empty the detergent solution tank before
filling it up.
To fill the solution tank:
• Remove the plug in the back of the machine.
• Leave 7 cm between the mouth of the plug and the
liquid level. Do not fill beyond this point!
• Add the required quantity of the chemical product,
considering the percentage indicated by the supplier,
with reference to the full tank capacity listed on the
product sheet.
• Use only those products suitable for the floor and
the dirt to be removed.
• The machine was designed to be used with
non-foaming and biodegradable detergents made
specifically for scrubber-driers. The use of other
chemical products (such as sodium hypochlorite,
oxidisers, solvents or hydrocarbons) may damage
or destroy the machine.
• Follow the safety regulations specified in the rela-
tive section and indicated on the detergent container.
• Contact the machine manufacturer to obtain a com-
plete list of available and suitable detergents.
• •Always add the detergent after filling the tank with
water to prevent foam from being created inside.
• Do not leave the water hose unattended and insert
it completely into the tank: the hose might move and
get sensitive parts of the machine wet.
• Close the tank cover.
To drain the solution water tank:
• Open the valve located at the bottom of the ma-
chine in the back ( Photo D - 1 ) and wait until the tank
has been completely emptied.
• Close the drain valve.
6.5.
DRAINING THE RECOVERY TANK
The dirty water must be drained in accordance with
national regulations.
The user is completely responsible for ensuring com-
pliance with such rules.
After the detergent solution is finished, always empty
the recovery tank before filling it again.
In general, the recovery tank can be emptied when-
ever required, and even during intermediate phases
of the work cycle.
• Always empty the recovery tank before lifting it
to avoid health problems for operators and to avoid
damaging the machine.
The recovery tank volume is higher than the deter-
gent solution volume, therefore a potentially dan-
gerous situation for the suction motor should never
occur. In any case, a safety float turns off the suction
motor if the dirty liquid level is too high.
• If water or foam starts leaking from under the
tanks for any reason, immediately turn off the suction
motor and empty the recovery tank.
To drain the tank:
Drive the machine to a suitable location to drain the
dirty water and preferably near a toilet or a sewer
drain (comply with the national regulations for waste
water disposal).
Turn off the machine and remove the key from the
panel.
Detach the drain hose from the hook and, keeping it
high, unscrew the plug.
Lower the drain hose toward the selected drainage
point.
The emptying operation can be interrupted quickly
and whenever required just by raising the drain hose.
Check the quantity of residual dirt in the tank and, if
necessary, clean the interior through the inspection
hole, lifting the cover and the funnel at the top.
Carefully position the funnel inside the inspection
hole and close the top cover, tightening the lock han-
dles after each inspection/cleaning operation.
Fully tighten the drain hose with the screw plug and
hang it on the support behind the machine.
☞ The top cover of the tank and the drain hose plug
must be airtight, otherwise the subsequent pressure
loss will reduce drying efficiency.
6.6.
DRIVING THE MACHINE
Select the running direction using the Forward/Re-
verse selector.
Insert and turn the ignition key.
Using the right foot lightly press the accelerator pedal
and drive the machine to its destination.
Turn off the machine and remove the keys from the
control panel.
The running direction can be changed using the for-
ward/reverse selector, even while pressing on the ac-
celerator pedal.

WORK METHOD
6.7.1. PREPARATION AND WARNINGS
Remove any loose solid residue from the surface to be
treated (using suitable tools, such as vacuum clean-
ers, sweepers, etc.). It this is not done, the solid dirt
might prevent the squeegee from operating correctly,
reducing drying efficiency.
This machine can driven only by trained personnel.
6.7.2. DIRECT SCRUBBING OR FOR SLIGHTLY
DIRTY SURFACES
Scrubbing and drying in a single pass.
Prepare the machine as previously described.
Select the forward direction using the direction lever.
